Publisher's Summary
It's humans versus monsters when an apocalypse turns a simple cross-country trek into the road trip from hell in this breakneck LitRPG thrill ride.
All that stands between rowdy long-haul trucker Jill MacLeod (aka Junkmouth) and her family back in Boston is two thousand miles of asphalt. Well, that and the monstrous game the System has had her playing ever since it descended on Earth. The reward: mana. Jill's goal: kill, score, drive—and stay alive. Behind the wheel of a turreted forty-ton semi named Bertha, Jill hammers east from Montana through a gauntlet of every kind of chomping, hissing, rabid creature imaginable.
Barreling forward in her magical soulbound big rig and chalking up a bumper crop of roadkill, Jill isn't alone for long. Hitching a ride are stranded brothers Babu and Ras Bati, who just want to make it home to Billings in one piece, and Mia Williams, a school nurse with a rotary cannon and a crateful of ammo. The artillery, at least, will be handy, because what lies ahead is the biggest threat of all . . .
Arriving in Billings, they find a city in chaos, led by a self-appointed psychopathic mayor using the monster-ravaged ruins for his own ends. But Jill hasn't come this far to be blindsided by a human—no matter how scary. There's still a game to be played: The System is watching, that metal-muscle fortress Bertha is transforming, and Jill and her shotgun-riding friends will do anything it takes to keep the terror in the rear view one gobsmacking mile at a time.
The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with more than 400,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Six stars
This book is one of the most amusing LitRPG’s I have ever listened too! It is well written, with unique characters. The MC is a female trucker, with a vast swath of swear words, however it’s hard to take offence at, when your laughing at her unique combinations. Ultimately she has a big heart, which leads her into many a hair raising and fraught encounter with both monsters and humans. The narrator does a brilliant rendition of the story. Can’t wait for more from the Highlander Shipping Co.

Something new and exciting for litrpgs
Book 1 and 2 have both been great. Lots of action, good characters with some depth, and a good story to go with it. It’s a book with a lot of originality for a litrpg which I love to see given how saturated the genre is. The author and writer also made for a great combo here. The narrator absolutely nails the direct and down to earth nature of the MC just plowing through the awkward or ‘drama’ moments, a perfect reflection of the driver for a 40 tons of freedom.
